Viruses and Advertizing

I.ve had many occations lately whilst just browsing Skyrim mods where windows has had to slam the door shut because the site is infected with viruses.

 

Also the type of advertizing that has appeared lately, such as you are the 999.999 visitor click here to claim youre wotever are just sites that will hack, download trojans etc.

 

likewise you can earn £437 pounds a day! no you can't! you might earn it for the company but never youreself these sort of sites should not ( in my opinion ) be encouraged.

 

Oh well got some dragons to trash! later have fun :))

First, make sure your system is clean of malware, spyware, and the like. Often people who report viruses from ads are getting them from other sources. You might want to download and run scans with Malwarebytes, Spybot, Avast, or Comodo. All 4 are free to use and are considerably more reliable than McAffee, Norton and some other subscription scanners. Even the Windows defender is often fairly reliable.

 

Second, it helps to know what the source of the ad is. Take a screenshot of what is tossing up these warnings if you can't get links directly and pass them to a member of site staff. If we know what ads are causing a problem specifically, we can have them removed.
